The deal is for four years, $40 million and could be worth as much as $50 million as it includes a fifth-year option for $10 million. The fifth year also includes a buyout of $3 million, bringing the guaranteed total to $43 million. The deal is expected to be finalized on Tuesday.

Wow, he really needs to send the Blue Jays a thank you card. 3 years $30 million is a bit much, Four years $40 million is stupid and I'll marry Rosie O'Donnell and make sweet love to her every day for the rest of her life if he makes it to a fifth year. The man will be 35 in July!

Shows you how stupid the Phillies are. He could have been had for 3 years and $27 million in June.

Does anyone else see doom in the Mets for the 500th time here for the Mets? Talk about not learning from history.

As a Phillies fan, I am very excited to see him go. No way is an injury-risk closer worth anywhere near that much dough or that many years. I'd much rather have the picks.

Just curious - you are a Yankees fan, right?

Then you'll understand the decision to overspend when it will significantly improve your team in the next couple of years.
